This invention relates to roller-bearings, and has for its object to rovide an improved tively, bear.

The boxing 15 is of greater diameter than the spindle 5, as is also each of the rings 2() bearing for vehicle-Whse s, although it will of and 2l, the rings being of lesser diameter than the boxing and lying in spa fed relation to the spindle. Between the rings and the corresponding ends of the boxing are received the reduced ends 25 and 26, respectively, of bearcourse befunderstood that it may be used The object of the invention is to provide an improved arrangement of boxing ier holding bearing-rollers and for providing races against which the thrust-bearing balls may rotate.

In the drawings forming a part of this specification, Figure l is a longitudinal section through an axle-spindle andliub equipped with the present bearing, the balls and rollers being in elevation. Fig, 2 is a detail perspective view of the boxing with its rollers.

Referring now to the drawings, there is shown a Wagon-spindle 5, having the usual shoulder 6 at its rear end portion, While its 'free end portion is reduced andthreaded, as shown at 7, to receive a retaining-nut 8, having aradiating iia'nge 9, which in the present instance is provided with 'a groove 10, that receives thrust-bearingv balls 1l'. The 'flange 6 at the base oll the spindle has also an 4annular groove l2, which receives thrust-bearing boxing and lying with theirbody ortion in balls 13. contact With the boxing and s in le.
